Greetings to everybody!
Is there any way to turn off roaming profiles and use only
local ones? In our company each of us connects to domain
from its own workstation, so as I can see there's no need
in roaming profiles.
Why I'm asking such weird question?
Because with roaming profiles Windows clients has readonly
profiles! With Policy Editor I made HKEY_Local_Machine
writeable, but (of course) I cannot change user's
HKEY_current_user, when I'm logged in as local
administrator!
Or maybe there's another way (some Samba/Linux tools) to
give users rights to edit their (roaming? local?) registry?
I'm using RedHat 7.2 and Samba 2.2.2.
here is [global] section from my smb.conf:
[global]
workgroup = ENIGMA
server string = Samba PDC v %v
netbios name = BOL1
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
os level = 64
preferred master = yes
local master = yes
domain master = yes
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
domain logons = yes
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 50
hosts allow = (not shown)
logon home = \\%L\%U\.profile
logon drive = T:
logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g machines -s /bin/false
-M %u

Yes it is simple - set: logon path = "" This disables roaming profiles. -- Peter Polkinghorne, IT Manager Kingsford Stacey Blackwell ppolkinghorne@kingsfords.co.uk 14 Old Square, Lincoln's Inn (44) 020 7447 1200 London WC2A 3UB A list of names of the partners is open to inspection at the above address.

Of course you have to mount the homes in a different way, I have logon script = %U.bat and net use g: \\sugar\frank in frank.bat, and I generate the other *.bat's by a script: #! /bin/sh set -x for i in $*; do sed -e s/frank/$i/ /var/export/smblogon/frank.bat>/var/export/smblogon/$i.bat; done Bye, Frank -- Frank F?rst, physikalische Biochemie, Universit?t Potsdam, Germany Tel.: +49-331-977-5244 Fax: +49-331-977-5062
